Three-day outlook

Open-Meteo weather model, downscaled to 4,350 m. DHM publishes no machine-readable mountain forecast, so this comes from a model rather than from Nepal's meteorological service — treat it as indicative.

Hazards

Only the hazards that apply to this route are listed. Individual hazards keep the meteorological wording — advisory, watch, warning — and the worst of them is what sets the route's state above.

SnowfallAdvisory

Up to 2 cm of snow forecast in the next 3 days

Open-Meteo model forecast at 4350 m. A forecast, not an observation, and not an official DHM warning — mountain snowfall is notoriously hard to model.

Forecast from the Open-Meteo weather model — not an observation· Observed 8 Nov 2026

AvalancheNo data

No avalanche forecast exists for Nepal

Nepal has no operational avalanche forecasting service. Nobody publishes an avalanche rating for this route, and no incident has been logged nearby — ask your guide and the local park office.

No source available

LandslideNo advisory

Rainfall too low to raise landslide risk (0.0 mm in 24 h)

Estimated from DHM rain gauge readings using our own thresholds. This is not an official DHM landslide warning.

FloodingNo data

No river gauge in this trail’s catchment

No source available

High windNo advisory

Gusts forecast below 42 km/h over the next 3 days

Open-Meteo model forecast at 4350 m. DHM has no anemometer at this altitude, so this is modelled, not measured.

Forecast from the Open-Meteo weather model — not an observation· Observed 8 Nov 2026

RainfallNo advisory

No DHM rainfall threshold crossed (0.0 mm in 24 h)

Rain gauges above the snow line under-measure snow heavily, so a low reading here does not rule out heavy snowfall.

DHM’s own threshold, measured on DHM’s own instrument· Observed 8 Nov 2026, 11:55 NPT· Imja_Lake, Tashi Gaun· low confidence

EarthquakeNo advisory

No magnitude 4.5+ earthquake near this route in the last 14 days

What this means for your trip

Standing guidance tied to the conditions above. Confirm with your guide before acting on any of it.

  • Snowfall Advisory: Snow is possible. Pack traction and a warmer layer than the season suggests.
  • Snowfall Advisory: Lodges above 3,500 m may close at short notice after heavy snow. Confirm onward beds before setting out.
